3-5 years’ experience in strategic sourcing, procurement, or category management
Experience in sourcing and negotiating, and contracting with suppliers to deliver strong commercial outcomes and business value , ideally within software, SaaS, or broader technology categories
Ability to problem-solve and navigate complex or ambiguous situations using a practical, solutions-focused approach.

Commercial acumen to analyse cost, value, and risk trade-offs and to support sourcing strategies that align with business and technology objectives.
Knowledge of supply market dynamics and the full procurement lifecycle – from strategy and sourcing through to contracting and supplier management.
You’re not expected to have 100% of these skills. At ANZ a growth mindset is at the heart of our culture, so if you have most of these in your toolkit and a passion for developing in technology procurement, we’d love to hear from you.
